Looking for some reviews of the Snow Leopard.
I'm considering on getting one.
Like the big tires and wide foot print. Being a Twin is nice too.

Rapidjim,
Any clue as to why it's discontinued?
3whlngrampa,
Just like to know about performance and any problems.

olmanrivah: I'm liking it so far, using it around town and have no problem getting to 45-50 mph. Not quite 500km on the odo, but it starts every time and runs smoothly. I'm still sorting out some squeaks and chirps and the chain idler seems to lack enough spring tension. But my overall impressions are good.
rapidjim: Can you be more specific about "some issues" ? If I had to guess, they are related to the "ice bear" part (the trike conversion) and not the Lifan part (basically everything else).
I gotta say, that is one looooong chain from the motor to the rear sprocket. And mine seemed under-lubed when I greased the "differential."

I don't know what the issues were, all I know is that IB discontinued that model. Jim |
